Chaperone-driven entropic separation of amyloid nanofilament bundles

The paper develops a computational model to explain how chaperones drive the entropic separation of amyloid nanofilament bundles, showing that efficient chaperone systems are required to overcome lateral associations.

The unreasonable effectiveness of equilibrium gene regulation through the cell cycle

The paper develops a theory to analyze gene regulation during cell cycles and finds a scaling law connecting transcription to equilibrium values, showing how systems like the lac operon function beyond naive physical limits.

TE invasion fuels molecular adaptation in laboratory populations of Drosophila melanogaster

This study shows that transposable element invasion in Drosophila melanogaster leads to molecular adaptation through recurrent insertions into a specific lncRNA under positive selection.

Robustness of DNA Looping Across Multiple Divisions in Individual Bacteria

The paper investigates the robustness of DNA looping in E. coli during cell division, finding that repression persists across multiple generations and is insensitive to repressor concentration and division events.
